It's getting hot outside, which means it's time to freshen things up with some warm-weather sewing! We want to see what great summery projects you come up with, so we've teamed up with Singer to bring you the Summer Sewing Contest.

The rules are simple: make a new Instructable that shows how to sew up something to celebrate summer, and publish it before the contest ends. There's no limit to the function, or materials used in your project. Sewing is required, either with a sewing machine or by hand with a needle and thread.

We have some amazing prizes to give away, including an 8770 Curvy sewing machine, and the new 3323S Talent sewing machine! As an added bonus, every winner will also receive an Instructables Prize Pack that includes a t-shirt, patch, stickers, and a one-year Pro membership.

Enter

Upon publishing your Instructable you'll see checkboxes for open contests. Select Summer Sewing Contest. If you have entries currently eligible for entry, it will also show up by clicking "Enter this Contest" on the right side of this page.

Accepting

Entries are accepted by Instructables staff within one business day Monday - Friday. What matters is the submission time, not acceptance time.

Voting

Instructables members can vote for an entry during the contest plus 3 days after the contest closes.

Judging

A panel of judges made up of Instructables staff and respected members of the community rate the finalists. The averages of the ratings determine the winners.

Winners

When the winners are decided they will be announced here on the contest page. All entrants will be notified when this happens.
